The AJC Dining Team visited Atlanta neighborhoods to find out which had the best dining scene. Chief dining writer John Kessler takes your questions about dining in the region.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution 2013 Fall Dining Guide is all about neighborhoods.We explored the metro area not for the best restaurants, but for the best restaurant neighborhoods. These are the four we think offer the best starting points for anyone who wants to explore good dining in and around Atlanta.

Each of the four — Decatur, Roswell, Duluth and Westside — offers an incomparable mix of destination dining, variety, surprise and its own kind of charm. We cross bridges over railroad tracks, people watch, duck into alleyways, snuggle under patio heaters and walk the periphery of huge Asian malls looking for the newest and greatest.

Welcome to an AJC Live Chat with food writer John Kessler. He's here to discuss our 2013 Fall Dining Guide which is all about neighborhoods. Please ask questions or and tell us about your favorite dining spots..

Hey, folks -- Where's the best place for a vegan? It's a topic I know well because one of kids is essentially vegan. Any restaurant with lots of small plates will do the trick. She loves Barcelona, the tapas bar, because there's a great choice of veggie options. Also, the secret veg. paradise, surprisingly, is Fogo de Chao. While everyone else is gorging on Brazilian barbecued meats, you can keep going back to the salad bar/buffet.

Hey John, for ITPers like myself here in Avondale and frequenting Decatur and not feeling a huge need to leave "Decatur Island" all that much, what's the best reason to head OTP to places like Roswell & Duluth? Reassure us! How's the vibe?

Hey, Nick - Duluth because the Korean food is freaking awesome -- literally some of the best you'll find anywhere. Roswell because you can be a tourist in your own town. It's kind of amazing to see Canton Street in full swing if you've never been and didn't know what it's turned into. Plus, you'll get better wine by the glass at Vin 25 than anywhere in Decatur. But you're more of a beer guy, I'm guessing.

Depends what you're in the mood for. We always love taking over a big barbecue table in a Korean restaurant like Cho Sun Ok on Buford Highway. I know lots and lots of people love celebrating at King + Duke, which has a great upstairs dining room. If you're going really fancy, the downstairs private dining room at Bacchanalia is a magical place.

A few years ago, Anthony Bourdain wrote that he would never eat seafood on a Monday because of delivery schedules, etc... Do you follow that rule? Would you suggest that your readers? And why or why not? Thanks!
